Case studies

Dinda — barbershop owner in Bandung

Switched from Fresha after 8 months

Problem

Her team kept struggling with the English interface, and the global marketplace never brought local customers — everyone still came from Instagram and WhatsApp.

Solution

Moved to BookMySlot for an Indonesian interface and a booking link she could drop straight into her Instagram bio, without a marketplace that went unused.

Result

Staff onboarded faster and she dropped marketplace payment-processing fees that weren't earning their keep.
